Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of anti-glare devices, such as those used in welding protective masks, and in particular to a glare protection unit for a portable anti-glare device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Anti-glare units for portable anti-glare devices such as protective masks and goggles are well known.
- Modern antiglare devices have electro-optical filters, for example with a liquid crystal element whose permeability is adjusted automatically or manually. This can be measured with a sensor of incident light.
- a sensor of incident light There is a certain risk that the surface of the sensor, or a protective window in front of the sensor, becomes dirty or temporarily in the shadow of the light to be detected. In such cases, the sensor may fail to detect a weld, which in turn may result in damage to the user's eye.
- Individual manufacturers have therefore begun to equip their anti-glare units with several, for example, four sensors.
- US 2005/0007667 A1 discloses an anti-glare device in which light guides guide incident light to a sensor.
- a sawtooth-like structure of the light guide is intended to couple light into it, but also leads to the coupling out of the light.
- US 2005/0097648 A1 shows an anti-glare device in which a UV converter is offset by an optical waveguide from a sensor: UV light is converted in a fluorescent converter layer in visible light in the near-infrared region, passed through an optical system to an optical waveguide and so to a sensor.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an easily adjustable light socket that can be adjusted according to different work situations.
- the anti-glare unit for a portable anti-glare device has an optical anti-glare filter and at least one sensor for detecting incident light and for controlling the permeability of the filter in accordance with the detected amount of light.
- the anti-glare unit has a light-detecting element which detects incident light on a detection area and supplies it to the at least one sensor.
- the area of the detection area is larger than the area of the sensor.
- means for coupling light into the light sensing element are spaced apart from each other. This makes it possible that these means for coupling light do not interfere with each other.
- the anti-glare unit is typically used as an anti-glare cartridge in a protective mask, such as a welding protection mask or goggles.
- Anti-glare cassettes are compact units with filters, power supply, sensor (s) and control electronics in a common housing, and can usually be mounted or removed without tools in a mask.
- the light sensing element preferably detects light from a plurality of spaced-apart areas at a front of the anti-glare unit.
- the convex envelope of the detection area encloses an area which is at least twenty times or at least ten times the area of the at least one sensor. This larger coverage makes the measurement of incident light less dependent on local darkening or contamination.
- the detection area can also comprise a plurality of mutually separate areas, from which the incident light is conducted to the same sensor, that is, other areas of the light detection element are covered with respect to the incident light. Nevertheless, in this case, a plurality of detection areas are spaced apart from each other, so that when one is darkened, the other still detects enough light to be able to reliably control the filter with the aid of, for example, a flicker circuit.
- the area of the detection area is preferably more than five times or at least twice the area of one of the associated sensors, and more preferably more than ten times or more than twenty times or fifty times.
- the light-detecting element preferably has means for deflecting the incident light to the at least one sensor by internal reflection.
- These means are, for example, light-conducting structures, in particular indentations on the light-detecting element. These are used, in particular, for coupling or deflecting light from the outside into the light-detecting element, and for coupling or deflecting light to one or more sensors.
- the means for deflecting exit prisms and / or entrance prisms which extend from an outer part, in particular from an outer side, of the light-detecting element into the light-detecting element.
- the light-sensing element is mirrored on the outside against the inside to improve the light guide by total internal reflection. The detection areas and the transition areas to the sensors are not mirrored.
- the light detection element is integrally molded, and is formed on the light detection element for two or more sensors each have their own means for coupling out the incident light to the respective sensor. Even so, a simple construction can be realized by multiple sensors can be supplied with a single element.
- the structures for coupling light into the light detection element have a distance of at least twice the local thickness of the light detection element to one another.
- the thickness is measured in the direction along a reference entry direction, see below.
- local thickness means the thickness in the region of the structure for coupling. This makes it possible to redirect the without the light being attenuated by a subsequent further structure for coupling or coupled out in the wrong direction.
- light is preferably coupled out of the light-detecting element to the same sensor by at least one indentation or a cavity, the light-detecting element being integrally formed in the region of this indentation or cavity. This also simplifies the construction.
- At least one of the entrance prisms has at least one deflection surface which is inclined with respect to a reference entry direction by an inclination angle of 0 to 90 ° and in particular of 10 ° to 70 ° and preferably of 35 ° to 50 °.
- the reference entry direction runs parallel to a surface normal of a light-detecting surface of the light-detecting element.
- the entrance prisms direct the light in a deflection direction.
- the deflection direction is the direction that leads from the corresponding entrance prism to an associated sensor or exit prism. In the case of an elongated light sensing element, this is the longitudinal direction along the light sensing element.
- the prism surface is also rotated about an axis parallel to the viewing direction. Thus, the directional sensitivity of the device can be controlled.
- At least one exit prism is arranged opposite one of the sensors, and one or more of the entry prisms are arranged along the light detection element on the same side of the light detection element as the at least one sensor, and spaced from the at least one sensor.
- the exit prisms may be covered, respectively enclosed in the light-sensing element, thus forming a cavity.
- the light sensing element is preferably a linearly extended or rod-like prism made of a translucent material.
- the light-sensing element is thus elongate and, for example, about 5 to 15 to 20 times as long as wide.
- the light sensing element preferably extends linearly along one side of the filter, and more particularly along at least two-thirds to the entire length of that side.
- the light-sensing element is arranged asymmetrically and in particular displaced downwards along an axis which is substantially vertical in the intended operation with respect to the sensors.
- the horizontal axis of symmetry running along the light-detecting element is therefore not arranged at the same height as the sensors, but rather slightly deeper.
- a housing edge which encloses the detection area of the light-detecting element and acts as a shield or cover, is arranged displaced downwards.
- the at least one sensor is preferably adhesively bonded to the light-detecting element by an adhesive.
- the adhesive preferably at least approximately the same refractive index as the material of the light-sensing element.
- the light detection element is formed in the detection area as a lens.
- the lens may be a refractive and / or diffractive lens.
- a refractive lens is preferably cylindrical or rotationally symmetrical.
- the light sensing element is preferably integrally molded from a transparent plastic such as acrylic, polycarbonate, etc.
- the light sensing element may also be formed by a transparent adhesive which is introduced into a cavity or a receiving opening of the anti-glare unit and cured. This cavity is thus formed as a negative or mold for the light sensing element.
- the anti-glare unit has at least two lenses, which are arranged displaceably and can be arranged in a first and a second position in the beam path of the incident light. This results in the first position, a first opening angle of the sensor and in the second position, a second, different opening angle of the sensor. This opening angle or angle of view or viewing angle is the solid angle under which incident light is supplied to the sensor.
- the displaceable lenses can either be associated with only one single sensor, or several lenses can each be arranged in front of several detection areas of a light-detecting element. Such sets of multiple lenses may in turn be individually or all together displaceable. In the latter case, the plurality of lenses are preferably arranged on a common lens carrier. By moving the lens carrier, one of a plurality of lenses of a lens set, which is assigned to the sensor (or the detection area), is simultaneously pushed in front of the sensor (or the detection area) for a plurality of sensors (or detection areas).
- a glare protection unit has an optical anti-glare filter and at least two sensors for detecting incident light and for controlling the permeability of the filter in accordance with the detected light quantity.
- each of the sensors is associated with a light-guiding element, and give the light-guiding elements respectively the associated sensors different opening angle.
- At least one of the light-conducting elements is a diaphragm with a diaphragm edge, wherein the diaphragm edge is shaped according to a predetermined opening angle.
- at least one of the light-conducting elements is a lens.
- processing electronics which optionally uses the signal of one of the at least two sensors to control the filter. This means that the angle of vision can be adapted to the work situation without mechanical measures.
- a glare protection unit or a glare protection cassette according to the invention preferably, even if it is not equipped with a light detection element, has a recess into which the light detection element can be inserted.
- the anti-glare unit can be operated without constructive change both with and without the light detection element. It is also possible provide different light sensing elements with the same external dimensions, of which in each case in accordance with the number of sensors and other parameters such as field of view, etc. one is inserted into the recess of the anti-glare unit.
- the light-detecting element surrounds a large part or the entire circumference of the filter.
- light which enters the light detection element in a region on a first side of the filter can be conducted around the corner to a sensor on a second side of the filter.
- the corners of the light-detecting element are preferably bevelled at an angle of 45 ° (in a view perpendicular to the filter or on a front surface of the anti-glare unit).
- the light-detecting element is mounted outside the anti-glare cassette, that is not in the same housing as the filter and the sensors. In the operating state, however, the light-detecting element has a defined position with respect to the sensors of the anti-glare cassette.
- the light sensing element may be mounted in this embodiment, either as a separate part on the associated helmet, hand shield or other holder, or in a transparent element such as an attachment plate, as used to protect the filter from contamination integrated, and in particular integral with the disc be shaped.
- the light-sensing element has conversion means for converting ultraviolet radiation into visible light or infrared radiation. This can be done by coating the entrance or exit surfaces or by continuously exposing the material of the light sensing element to a dye which realizes this conversion.
- Such a glare protection unit thus has a base glare protection unit with the filter and the at least one sensor, preferably in a common housing, wherein the light detection element is arranged outside the base glare protection unit.
- the light detection element can be replaced as a separate part individually. If it is integrated in a front or protective screen, it can be replaced with it.

- the area of the detection area is approximately 80 to 100 times larger than the area of a sensor, ie 40 to 50 times the sum of the area of the two sensors used in parallel.
- the entrance prisms are thus spaced apart from one another, ie areas with entrance prisms 8 are also arranged between regions of the light-detecting element 4 with entrance prisms 8.
- Figure 5 shows an enlarged and schematically a beam path in a part of a light detection element 4, indicated by arrows.

- the light is deflected downwards by the exit prisms 7, to the sensors 5, 5'.
- the beam path within the lightguide is improved - if the entrance prisms follow each other immediately and without spacing, the light would be partially deflected at a steep angle to the front, as in a retroreflector meet and leave the light guide again.
- FIG. 6 shows the beam path at an entrance prism, and how the light is coupled in by two times total reflection.
- the inclination angle ⁇ is the angle between the reflective prism plane and a surface normal of the plane through which the light enters the detection element 4.

- the orientation corresponds to the orientation during normal operation; the viewing direction of the sensors 5 is substantially horizontal, and the anti-glare cassette 1 and the filter 3 are aligned approximately vertically.
- the light entry surface 12 of the light detection element 4 is shifted downwards with respect to the sensor 5, or at least asymmetrically covered by an edge of a cover. As a result, light is supplied to the sensor 5 mainly from below. This reduces the influence of disturbing ambient light.
- Figure 11 shows an embodiment of the invention with molded-on lenses 10 and partially covered light-sensing element 4 in a lateral cross-section.
- part of the light detection element 4 is covered by a cover 16, so that only two areas act as detection areas 12.

- the light-sensing element 4 may also have formations 6 as described above.
- the entrance prisms 8 are shaped analogously to those of the previous embodiments. In addition, however, they can also be seen curved in the plan view of the surface of the light-detecting element 4 or consist of a plurality of mutually angled sections, so that each one of the entrance prisms 8 directs light to more than one of the exit prisms 7.
- the entrance prisms 8 can be distributed in a linear arrangement as in FIG. 3 or, as in FIG. 16, over the surface of the light-detecting element 4, which in this case is preferably identical to the protective pane 22 or one Part surface of the protective plate 22 is.
